30G — Lactuca sativa

Summary

Ls30G (30G, also known as TFT10, GF14-MU, LsRCI1, and other synonyms) on chromosome 4 of garden lettuce (Lactuca sativa) encodes a 14-3-3 domain-containing protein, a member of the conserved 14-3-3 family. The gene is associated with protein localisation and signal transduction, and its product localises to both the cytoplasm and nucleus. Studies of related genes in other species link the family to diverse regulatory roles. In lettuce, Ls30G is associated with signal transduction pathways, though its precise molecular functions remain to be fully characterised.
